I have read the wiki and several online tutorials and still cannot get my machines to talk to each other over NFS.Both are amd64 with Debian testing. Tutorials invoke programs that do not exist in testing, instructions are inadequate or too old.
View 10 RepliesI am *finally* getting around to rebuilding my file-sharing computer. I'll be sharing files with both Linux and Windoze machines. It's a home network, so there's nothing fancy needed. I know I have to tweak my smb.conf file until I'm satisfied with the features and security. I'm using SWAT and I'm starting with a bare-bones conf file. It's not secure but I can see the server and selected files/directories from my other Linux box.
My really dumb question is, do I have to reboot both the server and the client machines every time I change the SAMBA configuration? I thought I just had to stop and restart the SAMBA service in the SWAT software - but then the server disappears from my client. It looks like I need to reboot both machines for the client to see the server.
I want to setup some virtual machines that will use the same architecture and debian-version as my host-machine. I have started to setup VMs with a netinstall-image and now want to add more software using apt-get. As most of the software I will use is already installed on my host-machine I wonder if there is any way to configure apt in such a way that it will not download packages from the internet, but will use the packages from my host-machine to save network-traffic. Is there a good may to populate VMs using the debs from the host-machine.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI got a trouble about communicating between host application and HID device (with a button) in a embedded Debian Linux OS. The both of them are working fine on ubuntu. When I insert my HID device on my embedded debian linux Unit, following message show up:
# usb 1-1: new low speed USB device using ehci_marvell and address 3
usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
HID device not claimed by input or hiddev
and in /dev folder some usbdev files are generated:
usbdev1.3
usbdev1.3_ep00
usbdev1.3_ep02
usbdev1.3_ep81
usbdev1.3_ep83
When I run my host app, and press the button, no any data transferring happened (check with CATc captured data). I know the host app run fine on uBuntu, because I know how to open /dev/usb/hiddev0 in my code. I don't know how to open this kind of file in debian linux. I tried use each files above, the button still doesn't work. Can anyone help me to point out if it is HID driver issue or coding issue.
1. When I'm not logged into the server, only the shares are visible on my Windows computer. Clicking on the share folder displays an error message. As soon as I log in at the server, the files within the shares become accessible on the Windows box.
2. File transfers between the machines are extremely slow. Watching the system monitor, there's a brief burst of network activity followed by 10-30 seconds of nothing...on a gigabit network, the effective transfer rate is ~120kbs. There's no other network activity going on that would account for this behavior.
I'm wondering about the easiest way to network two computers over a Router. I go to Network on the Places Drawer and see the other machine, though it's empty and shows nada.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm running a network with a NIS. I want to implement a guest account on my network. The requirements are that the guest can log in on multiple computers at the same time and that the guest account's file are wiped out when they log off. The problem is that when guest is logged in on two different machines some programs (like firefox) will only run on one of them at a time. Is there anyway around this?
Also: I anticipate a settings nightmare. If guest is logged in on one machine and changes the desktop background then guest logs in on another machine will the background change in both places? What happens when the same file is written at the same time?
I have 15 or so debian lenny machines, and a xen server that I would like to join to the windows 2003 AD domain controller. The main goal is I would like the windows / linux user names and passwords to be the same on each system. Only 10 or so users need access to the machines but the passwords sometimes are different. How should I go about accomplishing this ?
I was told that openldap may be a solution. But from what I've read about it sounds like its just a mimic or window AD and doesnt sync with it, at least natively ?
I have now got three machines with Debian on in my home. I use Mobile Broadband with a very modest monthly limit and remember somehow using Synaptic to gather either Updates or packages to download on one machine where there was another type of internet and could then move the packages back to my computer. Can anyone here remind me of what I would have done there or suggest a means of getting these three updated without blowing my limit. I'd either use a relative's broadband and my netbook, or do the Updates once at home and move the packages to the other two machines.
I'm using Debian 6.01, Gnome edition, 64 bit, on an Atom N450 netbook, a 3ghz dual core AMD pc and a a 2 ghz single core AMD pc, whatever of this is relevant. They have slightly different programs installed but are at the same stage of not being updated yet, with 252mb of them to add.
I have a server that runs a minimal instalation of debian 5.0. The server has only 128mb of ram. I am trying to install virtualmin but I keep getting the message: spinner: fork: Cannot allocate memory
I have read that this is because the system is out of memory. I am wondering if there still is a way to get this installed om my machine. After the installation is complete I have methods of reducing the amount of memory the application usses.
Here is the setup I have. Two debain (squeeze machines) A1(eth0,192.168.33.1, netmask 255.255.255.0) and B1(eth0,192.168.43.1, netmask 255.255.255.0). They both have 3 nics'. So I am trying to connect to each other with a crossover cable and I have added the routes manually. eg: on machine A1 route added was
route add -net 192.168.43.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.33.2 eth1
and on machine B1
route add -net 192.168.33.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.43.2 eth1
For project purposes they both have to be on different networks, evn thouhg they are in same room.

I have a firewall between two different subnets. The reason for the second subnet within the internal network is because I have a mail server that I want to protect. However, we need to make sure that the mail server can communicate with the internal network as well.
Mail server is 192.168.100.100
Firewall is 192.168.100.1 and 10.110.101.5 (and its gateway is 10.110.101.1 to the router)
I go to another workstation and ping the mail server. I can't. It times out. I do the same from the mail server. It times out as well.

ok I am using Debian 4 bigmem and I set up static ip for my box. This is for a class and we will be moving the hard drives around the lab to different computers. My question is what do I configure to get Debian to be ok with my using different nics at different times.
My first time I used it, I had eth0, but now I'm on a different computer (same type of hardware on all systems) but my nic is now eth1... And I had to set up static again for that nic. How can I have it just maintain a static ip for whatever nic/mac address on the computer that my hard drive happens to be put on?
I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 AMD64 with KVM and several VMs running the same OS. Everything was running fine and the VMs were using the host's network via bridging. The decision was made to move the server to completely different network. I shut it down, the system was moved and hooked up, and I got it up on the new network pretty easily--just modified /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/resolv.conf. No networking problems at all.
Then I fired up virt-manager, powered up one of the VMs, and made the same kinds of changes. It's not talking beyond the VM server. I can ping the host, but can't ping the gateway. "tcpdump -i eth0" shows plenty of traffic.

View 5 Replies View RelatedBasically, my middle mouse button (button 2) wasn't being detected by mumble when I was trying to enter a ptt key. The button itself was bound to do some weird copy-paste function, so I figured maybe that's why, so I rebound it to Shift+Right arrow using xbindkeys and xvkbd. I then went into mumble and it detected this no problem, however due to the xbindkeys config, when I press the middle mouse button it only does the bound function once.... i.e. I press it, it sends Shift+Right arrow to the X serv, but then stops, which is obviously useless for a push-to-talk button.
So, really what I am asking is, how should I go about sorting this? Is xbindkeys able to translate a keypress in sync with the mouse button (i.e if I hold the mouse button, it holds down the keys bound to it) or am I going down the wrong route and there is a better way to get middle mouse as my push to talk button on mumble. Perhaps a different keybind software?
I configured an internal fake ip 192.168.1.11 on a virtual interface of my server.
I'm running one of my postfix instances on this ip.
The problem is that postfix can't talk to external hosts on the internet when running from this internal ip 192.168.1.11
I get an error in the mail log
Feb 21 22:43:00 localhost postfix-R1/smtp[11372]: connect to 7zips.com[109.169.46.199]:25: Connection timed out
It works fine when I run postfix on real ips, but I need it to work from the internal.
I thought it should just work.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm running 9.04, and wanted to use GMail's talk and video features. Registered with Gmail, and had to install a deb called google-talkplugin_current_i386.deb , and after installation, Gmail appeared as if it was ready/ok for a chat, talk or video.
Then I noticed the .deb was not shown under Synaptic, as a 'standard' deb, so in the interests of some 3rd party software NOT running on the computer, uninstalled it.
Went looking in Synaptic, and it does have a 'gtalk'. Is that all that is required, to run talk or video under a web browser, after logging into my GMail account ? Or, should I use Empathy ?
I would like to start a streaming audio/talk radio show where I can play music during breaks, talk most of the time about current events, and MAYBE even take callers.

Now I heard of this thing called IDJC, which I have installed, but I do not have the faintest idea of how to use it, let alone get jackd running properly. It just complains and stops. Nor have I EVER used Sam Broadcaster or anything like it. When it comes to this thing, I'm a complete newbie. Other people on other forums say you can use Shoutcast and VLC and bypass Jackd and IDJC completely.
